The Ripple Effect: It is the 13th of November and Lincoln, Texas will never be the same. Shortly before noon, some fifty people, workers and diners, are in a food court at Lincoln Mall in a small town in East Texas. Others are drifting in for a quick lunch, while they shop for a last-minute gift for a sister's birthday or a new belt, or a new pair of shoes. A young gunman appears out of the dark shadows of the mall and begins shooting; his assault rifle firing shell after shell until mass carnage flows. A class of preschoolers. Three old ladies meeting for their weekly hour of gossip about children and grandchildren. Burger cooks. Ice cream dippers. A salad store employee. A Texas Ranger. A man trying to find an anniversary gift for a wife that he is slowly losing, because he works too much. The reader is introduced to the people who will be in that food court in a matter of minutes. Some will live. Others...will not.

One Elephant Too Many is the story of a young black woman, right out of NYU Law School and recently hired by the Global Justice Project. She has been sent to The World Court in The Hague to represent the elephant species in the legal fight against African poachers. Watching over her is not an angel, not even a legal mentor; but rather, a witch and two bumbling warlocks, just earning their degrees in the dark arts.
